My better half and I have been looking at the new Cherokee (North edition w/V6). Haven't seen a Limited on dealers lots yet. (What she really wants),
Have heard rumours of a Cherokee "Overland" for 2015???? Any truth to this? Differences from Limited - if known? When 2015's available?

Sorry, but you have bad information. I bought my fully loaded Cherokee Limited II for less than the starting price of the Grand Cherokee. You need to check you facts and get out more.

And that dart platform is a universal platform that anything can be built on it. Not just the Dart. The Dart just happened to be the first vehicle built on it. It is not a Dart platform per say.

I agree - there is no way to get even a moderately equipped GC for the price of a loaded Cherokee.

As for the platform, to be even more precise, it is a platform jointly developed for FCA by Alfa Romeo, the renowned Italian brand. The Jeep engineers integrated the car-like handling platform with the Jeep off-road ability, making the Cherokee the best of both worlds, IMHO.

Thank's for the replies folks.
Best we can do on a 2014 Limited is about 39/40K w/ trade. Car would be loaded, but no 4w low just single speed 4 wheel.
Would love to see an Overland model. Haven't figured out what extra you could put on it though.
Don't think better half is ever going off road, but snow and bad roads she saw lots of this winter.
Like that it will tow up to 4500.
Already have a Grand Cherokee - 2011 Hemi.
"It's so powerful, that it will pass anything on the road......except a gas station."

It hits $40,705, I wouldn't call that easily... A Trailhawk tops out at $41,490, those are both with every option available. If someone is giving a price of $41k including a trade they are making a ton of profit unless you are rolling negative equity into the new one.
